About the company
Rural / Metro Fire Dept., Inc. Specialty Fire Division, operating as Rural Metro Fire Dept., provides Type 2 wildland firefighting hand crew services and emergency response to federal land management agencies as a prime contractor operating exclusively on full-and-open (unrestricted) federal procurements, with no subcontractor activity across its portfolio.
The company is headquartered in Union Grove, Alabama, and operates as a for-profit corporate entity with four named subsidiaries: Sunrise Air Ambulance LLC (a Small Disadvantaged Business), American Medical Response of Inland Empire, American Medical Response, Inc., and Guardian Flight, Inc. The company's federal footprint is almost entirely concentrated in the Department of the Interior's wildland firefighting mission. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management National Office dominates the portfolio with 56 awards valued at $108.4 million combined potential value, followed by the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Idaho Region (4 awards, $3.3 million combined potential value), the Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation (1 award, $434 thousand), and the Department of Agriculture Forest Service (3 awards across two regional entries). Of the 71 total prime awards in the source dataset, 90% flow through five named customer entities, with near-monolithic dependence on BLM's National Office wildland firefighting mission.
Rural Metro Fire operates primarily under two master IDIQ vehicles held with the Department of the Interior's BLM National Office. The Alaska Type 2 Wildland Fire Hand Crew Services 2020-2025 IDIQ carries a $47 million ceiling and has generated 28 task orders; a second Indefinite Delivery Contract (140L0621D0008) valued at $7 million has generated 24 task orders. A newer Indefinite Delivery Contract (140L0626D0010) valued at approximately $40 million was awarded on February 26, 2026, running through March 31, 2031, for Alaska Wildland Fire Hand Crew Services across nine performance regions throughout Alaska with capability for nationwide deployment. Recent representative task orders include a $1.14 million time-and-materials delivery order from the Idaho Region (August 24, 2026) for Type 2 crew assignment in Redmond, Oregon; a $1.145 million delivery order for fire support and crew assignment in Missoula, Montana (August 20, 2026); and a $434.3 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from the Bureau of Reclamation (April 1, 2024) for fire and emergency response services at the Yuma Area Office in Arizona running through September 30, 2029. Wage rate adjustments under the Alaska Type 2 Contract Crew Services IDIQ totaling approximately $778 thousand in combined ceiling value were awarded on September 22, 2025.
Award volume has fluctuated across the past five years — eight awards in 2022, 15 in 2023, 10 in 2024, 14 in 2025, and six awards through August 2026. The combined potential value across all 71 awards stands at $112.6 million, with $17.6 million obligated to date (16% of potential value). Across 30 SCI-reportable service contracts for fiscal years 2022 through 2025 (all prime records), Rural Metro Fire invoiced $7.1 million, with $3.1 million in FY2023 across 19.9 FTEs and $4 million in FY2025 across 26.8 FTEs. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable work ranged from a 10th percentile of $62.71 per hour to a median of $73.69 per hour and a 90th percentile of $82.62 per hour. Rural Metro Fire operates with zero subcontractor engagement on its reportable federal service contracts, delivering all work with in-house crews. The company's capability profile centers on Type 2 hand crew provisioning, fire suppression, initial and extended attack operations, emergency response services, and fuels reduction work across Alaska and western states, with crews capable of two-to-three-hour mobilization during the June 1 through August 31 mandatory availability period.
